To those whose radiator fan is not turning on with engine coolant temperature rise: First make sure that your engine coolant is at it proper operating level. A low level of coolant will not properly deliver heat to the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor, which will not then be able to...

Also, you will find a ground connection for most of the dashboard along the bottom of the dashboard frame just to the right of the center console's connection to the bottom of the dashboard. Look for a green-colored screw.

If, as shown in this video, you have after-market mechanically-connected battery cable terminals instead of the OEM cast-in-place connection, when cleaning the battery terminal-to-battery post connection, clean the cable connection(s) at the battery cable connection to the terminal. These are...

Have you checked power and ground connections?

For my money, after putting in a two-core radiator, a 180-degree F t-stat, an auxiliary 'pusher' fan in front of the radiator at the bottom right corner, and a high-flow water pump, the most effective mod was to lower the fan-on temperature by putting a second stock ECT sensor in parallel...

FYI: Stock fan-on temperature is around 221F while stock fan-off temperature is around 200F.

I'm drooling here!

As I recall the power to the passenger door comes from the driver's door switch. My problem was solved by unplugging the wire harness at the driver's door switch, cleaning up the connections, and plugging it back together.

Yes, as per the first sentence in that thread. If you do a search for 'p1443' you'll find many more threads containing several indications of reduced fuel economy.

Is the noise there ONLY when your left foot is in contact with the clutch pedal?

Haha... you had me scratching my head as to when I posted that. It was in 2009! Back in those days it was parked on the driveway year-round, which in winter could look like this: because my antique 1950 Ford was in the one-car garage. Sold that a few years back so SNAKEYE gets it all to his own...

And the only 'Green Stamps' you lost were in the casinos?

There is a switched ground wire mod to manually switch the fan on as long as the switch is left in the on position. A certain wire coming from/going to the ECU is tapped into and run to a switch conveniently mounted where the driver can reach it, and then continues to a ground point. It...

There are ways to get the radiator fan to come on without a tune. I agree that the rarity factor is a plus. I've actually have had people come up to me and ask what kind of car is that. I myself like the overall "roundness" if you will.

You guys that think you are running hot, putting in a 160-degree t-stat and lowering your fan-on temperature will cool things down

No gasket maker is necessary on the o-ring. A bit of silicon spray lube will ease getting it in there.

If the squealing stops when the A/C clutch is engaged it's not the clutch bearing.

Does the IMRC physically function?

Hmmm, no PM yet. Maybe you didn't get around to it yet, or maybe you don't have PM privleges yet, or I haven't used the PM system in so long I can't find it! Looks like I just attach the file right here and now. Then anyone can access it!

I haven't checked lately, but I got the complete installation manual for the 96-98 4.6L DOHC engine for the Vortech installed on my car by the previous owner(my son) on-line from Vortech, with a parts list of course. It's a pdf file. I can e-mail it to you if you PM me your e-mail address. Be...

Yup, you are going to have do some digging.
